Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: ath11k: fix RCU stall while reaping monitor destination ring<br />
<br />
While processing the monitor destination ring, MSDUs are reaped from the<br />
link descriptor based on the corresponding buf_id.<br />
<br />
However, sometimes the driver cannot obtain a valid buffer corresponding<br />
to the buf_id received from the hardware. This causes an infinite loop<br />
in the destination processing, resulting in a kernel crash.<br />
<br />
kernel log:<br />
ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data msdu_pop: invalid buf_id 309<br />
ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data dp_rx_monitor_link_desc_return failed<br />
ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data msdu_pop: invalid buf_id 309<br />
ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data dp_rx_monitor_link_desc_return failed<br />
<br />
Fix this by skipping the problematic buf_id and reaping the next entry,<br />
replacing the break with the next MSDU processing.<br />
